For University Students

We would like to request some help.  We want university students and researchers to take our findings and do independent research.  We would like as much empirical data as possible demonstrating our own research.  We would like to share our findings with as many people as will listen. 

Our great resources for University Students and Researchers include our tests and surveys, essays, articles, summaries of our research, and comparisons of our program with "traditional" spelling methods.  We are asking for as much feedback as you can provide.
